They fail to recognize that if we actually had a king, these protests would not be happening. They’d be banned, crushed, and buried under the weight of real tyranny. Kings claim to invite dissent, then round their opponents up to silence them. That’s what real authoritarianism looks like.
If President Trump was king these rallies wouldn’t be tolerated, they’d be obliterated. In fact, except for when they become violent and filled with illegalities against federal personnel, they’re protected.
And those folks out there for the No Kings rallies do not represent a majority of Americans. They are radicals, WOKEsters, and mostly pushing seventy and eighty. Many of them are the sixties hippies trying to regain their radical youth with a few kids dragged along by their activist parents, nodding dutifully while Grandma chants “No Trump, No Kings, No KKK” in a voice that barely rises above a whisper from her tired and aged vocal chords as she tries to channel Woodstock like it’s still relevant.
In truth, they are a cartoonish image of absurdity. Petty. The protests aren’t about principle. They are about pouting.
Meanwhile, President Trump is wheeling and dealing with Congress and the rest of the world, remaking America and the globe. He’s issuing executive orders tied to existing law and they’re all within constitutional bounds. The courts scrutinize them, the media screams, but the Supreme Court keeps affirming his authority because he is constitutionally executing the law, not rewriting it.
Trump is not a dictator. He’s not a king. He’s a president who doesn’t play patty-cake with the press or appease the rest of the leaders of the world. He’s gruff, firm, and unflappable. It drives the Left into hysterical temper-tantrums and all they know to do is scream, “Orange Man Bad.”
The Democrats in the end don’t hate kings. They hate losing power. Biden, Obama, and their hero FDR ruled like emperors. Their executive orders flew around like confetti, making law, modifying law, and refusing to operate in America’s best interest. Mandates. Lockdowns. Surveillance. Censorship. Obama even tried to muzzle conservative media and Fox News. Obama practiced imperialism with a progressive smile.
